Doing drama is, in a sense, easier. In doing comedy, if you don't get that laugh, there's something wrong.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Drama is easier to do because you just have to have the emotion and not get caught acting, but comedy is much harder.
To be perfectly honest, drama is a lot simpler than comedy.
Doing drama is a very welcome departure from comedy. Although I love doing both, I like to change it up a bit once in a while with roles in serious drama.
Comedy has to be so much cleaner than drama. You can't layer it in the way you can a dramatic performance. Which is why it's more difficult than drama - you don't have so many tricks.
I feel more comfortable in drama. Comedy is a high-wire act. I find it stressful. It's a precision science in a way.
People think comedians don't do drama. Comics are drama. And what is drama, as opposed to comedy? It's all the same to me.
You know, comedy's hard. With drama, you have a responsibility to the emotional truth, but with comedy, you have emotional truth and you have technique on top of it.
Drama comes more naturally to me. It's the comedy you really have to delve into.
I think when someone who's known for doing drama does a comedy but just tries to be funny, that's a mistake.
I don't understand why people think it's harder to do drama than it is to do comedy.
